Didn't get any results, i'm going to put on a set of TT Z32 wheels on for the winter. Haven't gotten my manual yet, can someone tell me what to torque the wheels to? Thanks!

 

85-90

 

Sorry, but how do you measure it. do you have to have certain tools?

I putting on my rims tomorrow, I had a concern about this. or should I just take it to discount tires.

 

80 ft-lb

I have a torque wrench that I bought at the local Autozone for about 20 bucks! It was mainly an excuse to buy a new tool. At first I would never use a torque wrench but now I do.

 

Most all cars are around 80-90ft lbs. Being off a few pounds is not going to make a difference. Just dont go crazy with an impact gun because you can warp your rotors, and you also dont want your wheels falling off. My torque wrench was $200, obviously you dont need one that expensive but I did a lot of head gasket work and needed something that was going to last and remain accurate, I didn't buy it just for wheels. A $20 one would be suitable for torqueing down your wheels at your house.

 

Torque wrench, go to Sears just make sure it is ft-lbs and goes above that setting, no need for one that goes more than that unless you will need it for heavier work like axle nuts and such.
